What winter? 2015/16 Season recap.

Well winter was such a tease this year.  We didnt get any snow storms that provided 8 or more inches of snow.  The best skiing was in January where we had a little base with 8" of fresh on top for a week or two.  We ended up using the toddler tow quite a bit (given that it doesnt require a lot of snow to ski).  It was fun to have family and friends over for Rusty's 3rd bday party.

Melissa and Jackson on the tow.

Everyone had a blast.  We even did some sledding too.

Mike took his sledding skills up a notch.

Jay and Zoe.

Birthday cake for the birthday boy.

Kricket and I both did a lot of skiing before or after work during sunrise/sunset.

Looking down homerun glade to the house.

It was definitely a year to ski on manmade snow.  The green beginner trails were actually pretty epic!  Rusty took his first solo turns and the rest was history.  Here is Rusty at Pico.

Pico season pass holders get a free voucher to Sunapee so we skied there as well.

We're lucky that the clostest nordic center to our house happens to make snow on a 5k loop.  This was Elet's first time on skis.

We also skied a Smuggs.  Here is Rusty and Elet with mom.

Throwin down the pizza wedge.  Elet was more into throwing down the 11's aka french fries.

Lots of front yard skiing too of course.

Rusty did a lot of biking in the snow too.

He often requested that we bring his bike along so that he could ski AND bike.

By March Rusty was skiing most of Golden Express at Pico on his own.

Pico closed early but luckily our passses were good to use at Killington which stayed open well into April.

Looking forward to reviving this blog for the upcoming 2016/17 season.  Hopefully we'll have more snow and if that's the case Ibshould be much more motivated to keep this blog rolling!
